Tampere Film Festival. National Competition 8
FATIMA

Finland 2013
Fiction | 20 min

Director: Naima Mohamud
    
Fatima on lastenelokuva tyttöjen ystävyydestä ja avioerosta lapsen näkökulmasta. Fatima kuulee vanhempiensa yöllisen keskustelun, ja luulee heidän olevan eroamassa. Onneksi on olemassa Milla, joka tietää, että ero on vielä estettävissä.
    
Fatima is a 9-year-old girl that overhears her mother and father talking about divorce. When Milla, her best friend, finds out about Fatima’s fears, she comes up with great ideas. The most important thing is to get Fatima’s parents to fall in love again
.

AA: A humoristic drama of two girls, the best friends, and their plots to save Fatima's parents marriage as they believe there is an imminent divorce. A romantic comedy (an Indian musical) might do the trick. Or a box of chocolate. Compact Video on Fredrikinkatu is one of the locations. With Yasmin Heinonen, Ilona Valve, Jusufi Gazmend, Joanna Haartti, Eija Ahvo, Maria Järvenhelmi, Karoliina Blackburn, and Matleena Kuusniemi.
